The purpose of this study was to examine the comparative effects of oral interspersal drill (O-ID) and oral cover-copy-compare (O-CCC) on the math performance of students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Two students diagnosed with ASD participated in this study, one of them was an 11-year-old male, and the other one was a 15-year-old female. The experiment consisted of four phases, which included O-ID followed by O-CCC (Phase 1), O-CCC followed by O-ID (Phase 2), O-CCC followed by O-ID with different problem sets (Phase 3), and alternating the order of O-CCC and O-ID with different problem sets (Phase 4). The results indicated that participants had higher rates of correct responses in the O-CCC condition than in the O-ID condition in all four phases of the study. The mean number of correct responses was higher in O-CCC condition than in O-ID condition. Additionally, based on the data in maintenance, it was hard to tell which instructional condition was better in helping participants maintain math facts that they have learned in the O-ID and O-CCC conditions. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that O-CCC was more efficient than O-ID in promoting participants’ generalization of the math facts. According to the data of social validity, participants were more likely to learn and practice math facts with O-CCC than with O-ID. In conclusion, O-CCC was more efficient and more effective than O-ID on multiplication facts learning with the participants in this study.
